Burton Veil One-Piece Snow Suit - Women's - 09/10
Sweeet!
By ogaharas February 25, 2010
i'm 5'6", 110 lbs and tried both the XS and S. XS fir well... a nice slim fit, but i could only fit one base layer underneath. the S gave me a little more room (which you'll need since this is really only a shell) for thick layering and impact gear. i LOVE the safari chic print (love, love, love), but ended up exchanging for the black for a little more "shelf life" (i want to wear this forever... on AND off the slopes!). the pants are boot cut, and from head to toe this suit gives you a nice curvy shape that you can't get from the standard jacket/pant combo.
all the tech features (venting, pockets, fabric, etc...) are GREAT– typical burton! the fur on the hood is way cute but limits your peripheral vision. it's removable, so no biggs!
last... thought i'm 100% loyal to burton, i would not have bought this at the original price $350. $210 at dogfunk is a great price! thanks guys- you are my go-to!!

hey! I'm around the same height (5'5 1/2") but I'm 123lbs... so a good 13lbs heavier, would you suggest I go with the medium? I'm definitely a layering kind of girl.... And also, I am between the capers and the black as well... you said more shelf life for the black... are you just referring to the possibility of the print going out of style?
